Chapter 61 The Wooden Image Disappears

Daya, hearing her father's call, picked up Wuwa and led her younger sisters out of the room.

The adults inside the room were still discussing around the bed, and the children had to dodge around to get out the door.

Hongji picked Wuwa from Daya's arms.

"Dad, I want to be carried too," Siwa said, too tired to walk.

"Alright, let's go home." Hongji carried one child in each arm, the older girls looking enviously at their younger sisters as they followed their father's steps out of the courtyard.

Ye Shuzhi, seeing her elder brother ready to go home, thought of the wooden Bodhisattva and quickly followed to leave the courtyard.

Ye Shuzhen was previously arguing with several sisters, accusing them of being unsupportive by joining others in speaking ill of her.

The sisters retorted that everyone in the village was saying the same thing, and they were merely going along with it.
